North Caucasus Military District

The North Caucasus Military District was a military district of the Red Army and the Russian Army which existed from 1918 to 1 September 2010. Headquartered at Rostov-on-Don, the first district commander was Kliment Voroshilov, and it saw little action during World War II, taking part in the fight against the Axis Powers when they briefly invaded the Caucasus in 1942. The district would be disbanded after the war, and the district would later be recreated. On 1 September 2010, the district was dissolved.
